How it feels

You explore an endlessly looping emergency staircase, searching for subtle anomalies while a quiet tension builds through each strange discovery and your choices affect the outcome.

What players say

Players compare this to Exit 8 and praise its balance of easy and hard anomalies, though the core loop is short at around 90 minutes. There is a bug where the protagonist's footsteps make no sound, and some find the movement too slow or motion-sickness inducing.
